Long time listener, first time poster...
Anyways, just started a 5lug upgrade on my 96 S14, but ran into a problem with the ABS ring. I was told that the only difference between the ABS and non-ABS front hubs is the ABS ring. I took off the ABS ring that was on my old 4 lug hub, and it is too big to fit on the new 5 lug hubs. Also, the 5 lug hubs had this odd looking flange looking piece in place of where the ABS ring is supposed to go. I could only assume that this was some sort of ABS defeater that I wasn't told about when I ordered them. I can put pictures up if needed, just hoping someone else knows what's going on here.
Ps, got the hubs off eGay
